This is the thread for this particular rule. It initially appears Brain-like (with four colors), but then settles down. A simple breeder:

Code: Select all

11.
..1

I had to do visuals because it was so small.

I've done a good bit of research in this rule.

Here are the c/2 spaceships so far:

Code: Select all

x = 12, y = 3, rule = 0/2/4
.B6.B.AC$B.B5.ABCA$ABA7.A!

Here are the oscillators so far:

Code: Select all

x = 11, y = 4, rule = 0/2/4
2.A6.A$.A6.A$A6.A$10.A!

That breeder you posted is a pattern which I have been trying to stabilize into a c/12 diagonal spaceship for quite some time. Hmm, what other object with infinite growth that moves at c/12 diagonal has become a spaceship? Anyways, this is the farthest I've gotten:

Code: Select all

x = 13, y = 15, rule = 0/2/4
3.2A$3.2BA$2.A2CBA$2.A2.CBA4.A$.ACA2.CBA$2.B2CBA.CBA$2.A2BA3.CBA$3.2A
4.CBA7$A!

Another oscillator (p26, I think):

Code: Select all

1......
.1.....
..13...
..3.3..
...31..
.....1.
......1

The infinite growth thing that you were talking about is probably a switch engine. Here is a breeder:

Code: Select all

x = 61, y = 73, rule = 0/2/4
15.CBA$15.CBA$14.2B2.CBA$15.2BA.CBA$15.A.CBA.CBA$11.2C3.CBA2.CBA$11.

This breeder is puffer-shooting-wickstrecher breeder! amazing!

Interesting rule. I found a spaceship with an arm of arbitrary size:

(Yes, I have the new version of Golly.) I know that there are a lot of unnecessary cells in there, but you get the idea.

You need to enter the x, y and rule name, like this:

Code: Select all

x=7, y=7, rule=0/2/4
A$.A$2.AC$2.C.C$3.CA$5.A$6.A!

EDIT:
The tagalong:

Code: Select all

x = 81, y = 76, rule = 0/2/4
$64.AB$64.B.B$64.AB.AC$68.AC!

With analogy to Brian's Brain and Live Free or Die, I'm going to call this rule Think Free or Die.

More like Star Wars (also 4 states).

In fact I'd investigated the rule before the topic was created; I'd been trying to corderize the slow moving spiral growth:

Code: Select all

x = 85, y = 86, rule = 0/2/4
.A83$A.A$.BA$.A82.A!

EDIT:
Better:

Code: Select all

x = 112, y = 117, rule = 0/2/4
28.A81$A110.A2$27.A.A$28.BA$28.A31$25.A!

Posted: **December 15th, 2023, 6:23 pm**

puffer

Code: Select all

x = 30, y = 18, rule = 0/2/4
6$9.AB$9.ABC.A$11.A2BA$13.B$13.AC$14.BC$14.2A!

Edit: closest i've been to stabilization of the breeder

Code: Select all

x = 10, y = 10, rule = 0/2/4
9.A3$3.A$3.A$4.A3$.A!

ye it's technically a puffer with a wickstretcher
i haven't found a way to remove the wickstretcher though
